Official FGC thread (Streams, Pop-offs, fukkery) update: COMBO BREAKER 2025 weekend

[TripleAgent]

Sanford wasn't right he just made his ass was irrelevant as soon as mvc2 slowed down

Marvel 3 is Marvel 2 scrubbified.

1. X-FACTOR. Scrubbiest comeback mechanic ever.
2. BBCS being an auto combo for most of the cast.
3. Super long OTG timing.
4. TAC. Another scrubby, random mechanic that rewards nothing but an arbitrary guess. THEN there are the infinite.

It's fun but let's not lie.

It didn't interest me enough to take it seriously. Too busy adulting also.

5. Universal launcher/air combo finisher button

My First Fighter ass game

P.S. By your logic, Sanford's word is damn near law, thanks to his resume

nikkas claim shyt be so easy and yet don't just sign up and take the free money since even a baby could win apparently. I think strive is a garbage dumbed down game. I lack the mentality and desire to be as good in it as I was in XRD, however the same people are winning therefore it obviously take skill, whatever that skill may be.

will never understand it. I was adulting when umvc was king too and won plenty of locals, regional and was murking majors.


you seem to be a mvc2 fan. Were you even decent at that shyt

You took the bait breh

Nikkas got all the shyt in the world to talk about the game because they don't understand Lord forgive them for they don't know

And I love and respect MVC2, but nikkas start playing dumb when you bring up shyt like guard break or the game having 6 viable characters

And cosigning the biggest crybaby in fighting games, from the most whiny bytchmade video in fighting game history is

Let these nikkas hate

Every game has scrubby shyt. EVERY SINGLE ONE.

you show me a fg I'll show you some stupid scrubby shyt, dating all the way byke to ST.

Find the scrubby you can stomach and keep playing, or don't. MVC2 is a scrubby ass game too, it just has more of a initial execution barrier.

shyt is clockwork for new titles. Strive is honestly a special type of dogshyt because all the OGS aren't actually looking at things with rose tinted glasses like "well the old game is better..." cuz strive is just terrible compared to every other rendition of GG. look at Tekken, 8 scrubby for sure. But 4 has unblockables every title in that series has moves that were game breaking and silly. It was just better movement. but scrubby shyt nonetheless.


MVC2 adulation was always fascinating. It is both one of the highest ceiling games and the scrubbiest possible. infinites, guard breaks, Storm herself essentially rendering 95% of the game unplayable yes some of the execution is hard at first but once you can do it, it isn't. Then you are left with the fact unless you are some type of psychopath you have a handful of viable team shells if you don't want to just be handicapped from round start.

I'm driving back from Oklahoma so I shouldn't be posting, but a good portion on this post is wrong. If I remember tomorrow when I have time I'll expound. You clearly don't understand 2 or just want to sound right.

Nikkas think I just like having hot takes about fighting games but really don't know where I'm coming from. I just see everybody's bullshyt

Recently I've reached a point of realizing why people keep having these extreme ass opinions about different fighting games

Nikkas end up with a favorite game and that becomes their benchmark for "good" and anything that doesn't match up becomes something they can feel good about looking down on. I'm on the side of fukk that shyt

I've seen it a lot with SF6 and nikkas hating Noah. You can call Noah a whole lotta shyt but to call him bad, when he's top 3 American player right now is wrong You're calling Noah bad based on the standards of a game you don't even play anymore This is why I'm huge on nikkas playing what they love, regardless of how old it is

So nikkas don't have to love Umvc3 like I do, but to use MVC2 as a point of elevation nikka please I ain't going for that

yeah okay. The skill gap needed to circumvent storm if you playing some mid/non god tier shyt is at least several levels.

I've been watching that game for decades I'm not blind

right, play what you want. Noah is how I feel about strive. I hate his/that games playstyle but it is working and seemingly consistent so its not my cup of tea, I'm call it wack and keep it moving.

If you don't like UMVC cool but unless you just say you don't like it. once you start bringing the scrub word into fg arguments we got to pick apart what you mean cuz its a high chance whatever you think is scrubby in umvc, is also in mvc2 in some fashion. I can be a hypocrite at times cuz I'll call shyt scrubby but ultimately end of the day if it works, and works against you. you just aren't good enough, and thats the beauty of FGS they will tell you about urself cuz aint shyt to hide behind

Umvc3 wasn’t in the arcades, so I can’t rate it over MVC2. I will say that objectively UMVC3 is the fairer game; way more viable characters, easier to get into, creative freedom, ect… but MVC2 is just classic. It’s the Street Fighter 2 of tag games.



The feeling you got when you first enter a new arcade and you see that big MVC2 cabinet with a crowd around it?
